Nike made a careless move, and Adidas immediately slaughtered the water dogs.

Taking advantage of Zheng Ke becoming the hottest star in the world this year, he has launched several generations of basketball shoes one after another. During the All-Star Game, Zheng Ke's "Nuclear Bomb Series" sneakers were specially launched, which were more than enough and not practical, but they also increased their sales significantly. In this playoffs, the "ZK 8th generation" sneakers were officially launched, which further shrank Nike's efficiency around the world.

Just like Adidas, who gave up Jordan at the beginning, feng shui takes turns. Zheng Ke, a little-known kid, has now become the pry stone of the behemoth Nike, and the only script that Nike hopes for now is that the Timberwolves led by Zheng Ke fell on the journey of this year's playoffs, and they worked hard to build James to lift the trophy for the first time in his career.

Nike has that hope, and the other fifteen playoff teams in the league all have their own goals.

With the league's No. 1 regular season record, the Timberwolves will enjoy home-court advantage no matter which team they meet, and the Grizzlies in Memphis will have to trek through mountains and rivers to the terrifying Minnesota first to play two sets with the Timberwolves

In the training hall of the target center the day before the game, the Timberwolves players sweated profusely.

"Attack, attack!" Zheng Ke, wearing a white vest with a large number 17 behind him, ran on the left side of the fast attack line, and his command voice immediately rang out in the empty arena.

Lowry, who was fast attacking and controlling the ball, split the ball with Zheng Ke, Zheng Ke waved his head and waved his hand, and the basketball flew to the basket on the other side.

"Bang dang!"

Little Jordan Tarzan pressed the top and pulled the basket out of shape.

"Wow, wow, wow" The sound of the players clapping and clapping immediately sounded in the target center, sparsely, but with a strong English accent, it had a different flavor.

"Pretty", "Pretty! Zheng Ke and Jordan Jr. high-fived and hit their chests. Then walk to the other side and high-five Lowry in celebration. A few big boy-like players wiped the sweat from their faces and looked at each other. Look at each other and smile. Then under the arrangement of Thibodeau on the sidelines, he walked off the field.

The staff on Hou Li's side immediately handed over the water cup and towel, Zheng Ke naturally took it, and then smiled: "Coach, how was our fast attack just now?" I draw the attention of the defense up front, Deandre comes in from the back, a center in the fast break, a center who bounces more than a defender, how about it? Grizzly bears, these turtle grandchildren, don't kneel down and beg for mercy? “

Thibodeau laughed dumbly when he heard this, and pretended to kick Zheng Ke. Zheng Ke immediately avoided it, and the players around him laughed. "Don't be proud, the Grizzlies are some of the strongest defensive teams in the league. Among the teams I'm optimistic about this year, except for the Bulls and Mavericks. Outside of teams such as the Heat, they are optimistic about the Grizzlies. One of them, Tony Allen, is definitely a super defender and does everything, Aaron [Afflaro], and you're a little bit worse than him. “

Thibodeau said to the Timberwolves' players that he was worried that the Timberwolves would be careless. "Don't worry, coach, we're just kidding. Grizzly bears are strong. It should be said that the teams in the top eight in the entire West are considered hard bones. Toni Arenka's kung fu is very strong, and his small movements and defensive strength are all excellent, but he is not as tall as me and not as heavy as me. Not as strong as me, not as fast as me, if he grows ten centimeters taller, he may be the most terrifying Frontguard Swingman Terminator in the whole league, but for now. He can't. Zheng Ke's chest straightened, his face showed a proud look, and his momentum looked like he was saying: "Lao Tzu is the leader of the bandits, who can stop me?" “

Well, in fact, it is not the first time that Zheng Ke has done such a domineering behavior, and the Timberwolves players already have sufficient immunity.

They all yelled "again" and then turned around and went about their business.

Zheng Ke: ""

Just then, the doors of the training hall opened. "Huh?" Thibodeau frowned, and just wanted to scold the staff for not letting others in, but he saw clearly who was coming. "Huh?" Zheng Ke was also stunned.

At this time, the crisp children's voice sounded, and Xiao Zheng Shuang ran forward from the ground, shouting as he ran: "Dad, Dad"

Zheng Ke was overjoyed, and then angry.

He took two quick steps, picked up Xiao Zheng Shuang, and looked at Taylor, who was walking slowly, with a questioning look on his face.

Taylor smiled bitterly and said: "He was noisy and noisy at home, saying that he had to come to see his father, and his temperament was stubborn, and my parents looked distressed, so they called me to bring him over." "It's closed training, we're going to play the playoffs tomorrow, are you crazy?" Zheng Ke was angry.

The training on the field has obviously gone off track, and the players looked at Zheng Ke's family of three absentmindedly, some were amazed by Taylor's beauty and sexiness, and some were attracted by Xiao Zheng Shuang's cuteness. Thibodeau's brow furrowed deeper and deeper, and then he simply called a timeout and announced a five-minute break. "Did something happen?" Assistant coach Thomas walked over, he winked at the little guy in Zheng Ke's arms, and then said, "Can you give me a hug?" Zheng, he's so cute" "It's okay, coach, of course you can hug him." Zheng Ke handed Xiao Zheng Shuang out.

As a result, Xiao Zheng Shuang seemed to know what Zheng Ke was going to do, and when he saw that Zheng Ke was going to hand him out, he suddenly stopped talking, grabbed Zheng Ke's shirt chest with his little hand, and then tears surged out of his eyes, and his mouth opened, and he began to cry "wow".

A group of black men gathered around, and many of the players saw Zheng Ke's children for the first time, pointing and pointing. "Go back quickly, don't disturb our training." Zheng Ke was ruthless and wanted to hand the child to Taylor. "No, you better leave the two of them behind, anyway, today's training is almost over, you can go back together later." Before Taylor could speak, Thibodeau had already arranged everything understandingly, and Taylor immediately gave Thibodeau a grateful look.

Since the coach said this, Zheng Ke couldn't hold on, he held Xiao Zheng Shuang in his arms, and then led Taylor to the side of the bench where no one was sitting, and then put Xiao Zheng Shuang on the bench. "Sit well, don't run around!" Zheng Ke's eyes kicked and his fierce face was revealed.

Xiao Zheng Shuang's mouth bent down, but he was frightened by Zheng Ke's serious words, he was still a little afraid of his father, and he was so frightened that he sat down obediently. "Or you have a way, but he won't listen to what I say!" Taylor stroked the ends of his forehead and smiled. "This kid is just active, he has been energetic since he was a child, I think he has the potential to become a top basketball player, and when the time comes, he will become a star like me!" Zheng Ke patted Xiao Zheng Shuang's head and said with a smile.

Taylor gave him a blank look, she has always opposed Xiao Zheng Shuang becoming an athlete like Zheng Ke who trains day and night and then competes, when discussing the future development direction of Xiao Zheng Shuang, Taylor has always looked forward to her son becoming a well-known university scholar, so she still firmly opposed: "Don't even think about it, my son will become an intellectual in the future, how can he be the same as you?" “

Zheng Ke is embarrassed, why is Taylor, like O'Neal, looking forward to his son's academic excellence?

On the evening of April 16, US time, the much-anticipated NBA playoffs officially began.

It's still the same as last year, with four eight-team battles on the first day of the day, three of which came from the East and one from the West. Three matchups between Eastern Conference teams, namely the Bulls and Pacers, the Heat and the 76ers, and the Magic and the Hawks. And a matchup in the West is a battle between the Timberwolves and the Grizzlies.

In order to maximize the ratings, the NBA has stretched out all the time of these four games, starting with the Bulls and Pacers at the beginning, and ending with the Timberwolves beating the Grizzlies.

Before the start of the game, the Timberwolves still came to the arena early for some basic and simple pregame training.

From time to time, there will be staff members who are training for the Timberwolves and others to inform them of the ongoing game in the East. "104-99, the Bulls beat the Pacers!" The first news came out, Thomas took the technical statistics table in his hand and said to the players on the field. "How many points does Ross have?" Lefu immediately asked the question that everyone was most concerned about. "39 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists!" Thomas spoke out loud, but a strange smile appeared on his face.

Everyone was in an uproar, and he scored 39 points in the playoffs, and this guy who is second only to Zheng Ke in the MVP list is really not simple.

"How many hits?" Lefu then asked.

"10 of 23 shots!" Thomas paused, then continued: "19 of 21 free throws!" And then"

"0 of 9 three-point shots!"

"I'm rubbing, so awesome!" Everyone first exclaimed, and then immediately burst into laughter, thinking that Rose's shooting rate was really bullish, after 9 of 0 three-pointers, that is, he shot 10 of 14 from two-point shots, and this shooting rate has exceeded 70 percent.

"Fortunately, Ross is not strong in three points, otherwise these guys in the East District would still be playing hairy!" Zheng Ke sighed, a little pity, and a little worried. There are not a few players like Rose who have started to show real strength in the playoffs, and some players will become stronger in all aspects as soon as they enter, and I don't know what kind of state the Grizzlies will have.

It didn't take long for Thomas to report the results of Game 2 in the Eastern Conference — a 97-89 win over the 76ers.

Without waiting for the results of Game 3, the entire Timberwolves team was fully assembled and then walked out of the locker room and headed to the main arena, where the Grizzlies of Memphis were waiting for them
